Any info on number of units Halong and Innosilicon are selling of each Decred and Sia models for this end of April batch release?
Keeping eye on difficulty and profitability once these hit...
The Halong units have already been shipped and received but the difficulty hasn't spiked like you would expect if it was Bitmain making the miners. From what I see Halong and Innosilicon are doing it the right way and not flooding the market with new miners forcing everyone to take a hit on their return.
I'd expect about the same small hash spike when the D9 is shipped and everyone gets to make money.
Why would you expect that with no information on the quantity of miners sold / shipped, that makes no sense. For those that bought I hope you're right...
In searching the threads it appears some of the Halong B29's (Decred) and B52's (SIA) have arrived to those who ordered ... I think some are still waiting... not sure the Innosilicon miners have shipped (this thread says shipping starts today) ...
With these SIA miners (miners B52 and D9) over 4 times the hash power of current Bitmain A3 products , and plenty of those out there in the market, I still give it a few weeks to see shipments and home miners get plugged in before I make any determinations about the difficulty changing for SIA... as for the D9 there's no Bitmain miner so that's nice , but there still should be a huge spike in difficulty in the coming days...
Since the D9's are the exact same specs and Halongs B29 they must be using the exact same Samsung chips. I'm willing to bet that Halong got first bid on their first shipment of chips and Inno got in an order for the second batch. Since this is Samsungs first miner chip made I doubt batch 2 that Inno purchased would be an increased from what Halong shipped out. The networks hashrate for Decred increased by about 5% when Halongs miners came out and I've been making about the same decred per day since I got my B29 2 weeks ago. Also you can see that Inno has the S11 miners running right now for their testing before they ship and I'm willing to be they are doing the exact same thing for the D9 so the hashrate you see for the network won't change a lot.
